Summary
____
Tim Drake died at seventeen, his family long broken beyond repair.
A Cuckoo finally rid from the nest.But when he wakes up in his time, just a year after the Graysons death and appearance of the first Robin.
Tim wouldnt let his family suffer again, even if it meant he couldnt join them.Bruce Wayne is not "Brucie Wayne"
Tim Drake is not "Timothy Drake"They are both personas, a front to prevent people from looking at whats really under the surface. But sooner or later Tim should have known Gotham being a city of secrets, nothing stays buried forever. Especially not when the bats get involved with their trashy next door neighbor whose behavior seems more and more contradictory.
Tim had saved them all more times than he could count, maybe this time they could return the favor.

Summary
Tim gets de-aged, and tells absolutely no one.
He also, in no particular order, gets therapy, does a lot of crime, channels his inner cyberbully, steals another Batmobile, moves to Metropolis (temporarily), causes an Arkham breakout, gets kidnapped, kidnaps someone else, and accidentally becomes a supervillain somewhere along the way.
Parental supervision is for losers.

Summary
Tim was terrified. There was no denying it. He stood in front of Jason’s apartment door, shivering and soaked to the bone, clutching his school bag. Jason was not going to be happy once he opened the door and saw him there – Tim knew that. But this was his only option.
There was no way he could go to the manor. Tim couldn’t face Bruce like this.
OR: Tim gets a "bad" grade and panics

Summary
Tim Drake never actually wanted to become part of the Robin-Batman-vigilante outfit. No, really. But the last Robin up and died, and now Batman is going crazy, and no one else is doing anything about it, so...Tim decides to become Robin. He might as well, right? At the very least it'll give him something to do while his parents are gone.
Still, Tim's not taking up the mantle until he can put a couple of things in order. Step one? Making sure the Joker can't get it into his head to kill another Robin. Not ever again. (Good thing Tim's not the one with a 'no killing' rule.)
And then after that? Well, after that it's only just a matter of keeping Batman from learning Tim's identity and subsequently chasing him off. Not until Bruce can get back on his feet and pick a new Robin, a real one this time. Easy-peasy.
Sort of.

Summary
Tim doesn't expect much after he's left for dead, bleeding out in the ruin that had once been Gotham. His family is dead, his friends as well, and there is nothing else to look forward to besides joining them in the beyond. Dying and delirious, he hangs on by a thread - Long enough for an offer to be made, a request for help and Tim has never been able to say no to that.
He doesn't expect much and he certainly doesn't expect a second chance but it seems like Gotham doesn't let go easily of what they considers to be theirs.
He dies and yet he doesn't. He dies but he lives.
He dies and he is taken back, time unwinding, the clock set back and he is born into a new life. A new him, and at a point where he can change things for the better, if he can survive.
Tahmid al Ghul (Wayne) is born in Spring 1997, as Heir of the Demon Head, as Ibn al Xu'ffasch - nearly twenty years before he died as Timothy Jackson Drake-Wayne.
He just hopes he will be able to survive growing up in the League of Assassins, and that he will be able to go back to his family once more.

Summary
Tim often experiences ‘silent’ migraines where he loses vision in his right eye. He has never felt the need to bring it up to the Bats, partially out of fear that they would permanently bench him if they found out. Besides- he manages just fine. Until one day one of his brothers notices he can’t actually see.

He spent some time on the streets, and now at 16, he makes a living as a fortune teller, stalking and hustling the shit out of Gotham's elite by telling them eerily accurate fortunes based on the information he gathers about them.
His life is peculiar but he wouldn't change a thing. When he gets booked for the big Wayne Halloween party, however, he finds himself getting all tangled up with the Waynes, and the more fortunes he tells, the tighter the snare becomes.or: Tim just wanted to scam Gotham's elite, not end up on the Batfamily's watchlist. But it seems they just won't leave him alone..

Summary
Dying was natural. If there was anything natural about being beaten to death by a clown with a crowbar and blown up. Coming back to life was less natural, but not unheard of. Jason would personally not recommend having to dig your way out of your grave, but whatever universe-controlling entity that was running this show didn’t seem to care for his opinions.
Dying twice was just a natural consequence of his resurrection. Sure, he’d expected to be kicking around for more than a year or so after his miraculous return, but he supposed accidentally spooking a tiny assassin child and getting stabbed to death was a funny enough way to go. His life was a joke after all.
Now, coming back to life a second time was completely unexpected.
(A Titans Tower AU where Death doesn’t seem to stick for Jason Todd anymore, but Tim doesn’t know that when he accidentally kills him.)

Damian didn’t need an older brother. Tough luck, Bruce thought he didn’t need a Robin either. Look where that got him.
Or Tim doesn’t care what Damian says. He has always wanted a baby brother to love and care for and Damian fits the bill. So what if he’s a little stabby stabby? That just gives him character.
